1977 Map of Boundary Pond

About this map

Boundary Pond and the surrounding borderlands of Franklin County, Maine, are captured in this 1977 orthophotoquad, which reveals a landscape defined by timber, water, and international proximity. Unlike a traditional topographic map, this imagery showcases the actual texture of the forest floor and the carved paths of the Moose River and Riviere Kokombis as they cross the terrain. The presence of Lowelltown provides a historical anchor in an area otherwise characterized by high peaks and remote water bodies. This specific edition uses aerial photography to detail the transit corridors such as Keenes, offering researchers a precise look at the land use and accessibility in the late seventies. Significant peaks like Mont Round Top and Dome Mountain dominate the northern and eastern horizons, framing the watershed of the Riviere Nebnellis.
